Peter Laviolette too busy coaching Preds to ponder history

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) Peter Laviolette is not one to waste precious time reflecting on how he feels about taking his third different NHL team to the conference finals.

The coach is too busy trying to help the Nashville Predators bring the Stanley Cup championship to Music City.

”We’re excited to get going and start,” he said. ”Guys have worked hard to get to this point and just want to keep working hard. Like I said, I think the most important thing is just keep our head down and keep doing the work.”

It’s tough to argue with Laviolette’s approach considering his success.
